made all, shaken up over 1f out, kept on well
tracked leaders in 3rd, outpaced over 6f out, soon reminders and hung right, never dangerous
tracked winner, ridden over 2f out, kept on and well held run-in
Tikkanbar won a bumper at Hereford last month and is burdened by a 7lb penalty. Wig Wam Wiggle was runner-up at Newcastle recently without threatening the winner while Oliver's Island finished fourth at Towcester on his racecourse debut and is another likely improver. A point-to-point winner in Ireland last year, MOLLY THE DOLLY finished third to the unbeaten Petticoat Tails on her debut under Rules at Huntingdon last month and Ian Williams’ mare can take advantage of the weight concession to land this.
